the river song - larry “jinx” alexander lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
oh, it gets down in your heart
you know it gets down in your blood
when you learn how to walk
down in that mississippi mud

[verse 2]
my papa was a riverman
i ain’t ever had no maw
some folks say
we come from arkansas

[chorus]
black smoke rollin’
against that lazy summer sun
[?]
you know we sure was fun

[verse 3]
i never went hungry, lord, i never was rich
i learned how to swim in an old [?]
crawdad tadpole, won’t you sing your song
go and tell the world about your mississippi home

[chorus]
black smoke rollin’
against that lazy summer sun
[?]
you know we sure was fun
[verse 4]
the sun [?] low on a weepin’ willow tree
the crickets sang a song just for papa and me
go comb your hair, boy, now put on your jeans
when the sun sets tonight, we [?] new orleans

[chorus]
black smoke rollin’
against that lazy summеr sun
[?]
you know we sure was fun

[verse 5]
that was fifty years ago
you know, my papa hе’s getting on
that was fifty years ago
you know, my papa he’s getting on
but the boy’s become a captain
you know the river’s still my home

[coda]
black smoke rollin’
against that lazy summer sun
crawdad tadpole, won’t you sing your song
can’t you hear the whistle, papa
i’m comin’ home
